High-speed conterflow-clocked pipelining illustrated on the design of subband vector quantizatizer chips | This dissertation introduces Counterflow-Clocked (C2) pipelining and discusses its usefulness and limitations to build large, high speed VLSI chips. It also presents the design of an image compression chip set to implement subband vector quantization that can handle HDTV data rates with reasonable V... | VLSI chips; counterflow-clocked pipelining; computers | 1995-12 |

Localization in outdoor static terrain (LOST) | This thesis considers problems that arise while combining these strategies with a feature based approach to the localization problem. A subset of strategies were simplified and implemented, along with key feature based concepts. This experimentation has helped to point out and clarify some aspects o... | localization problem; LOST; localization; computers | 1995-12 |

Graph-based approach for solving geometric constraint problems | This dissertation presents a new graph representation for constraint problems based on the notion of degrees of freedom and valencies. Any geometric primitive ( point, line, circle, plane, etc.) possess an intrinsic degree of freedom in its embedding space. Constraints reduce the degrees of freedom ... | computers; geometric constraint problems; graph | 1996-05 |

Scientific visualization for finite element analysis data sets | The research is focused on developing new techniques for visualizing FEA data sets. In this thesis, new parallel volume rendering algorithms are outlined to speed up scalar field visualization. Strreamlines, streamribbons and streamtubes are the most fundamental tools for exploring vector field data... | finite element analysis; FEA; computers; algorithms | 1996-08 |

TWEAK: A three-dimensional toolkit and modeling system using snapping and constraints | The goal of this thesis is to provide a simple and intuitive user interface to a three-dimensional (3D) Computer Aided Design system. The interactive modeling system described here was built to demonstrate the utility of this user interface. The four main parts of the system are discussed. | Tweak; snapping; constraint; interactive modeling system; DI-3D graphics library | 1996-12 |

Extraction of Micro-Terrain Features | Micro-terrain features are topographic structures relavent to the behavior of a simulation, but with a horizontal extent significantly less than the resolution of the base-level terrain data covering the area in which these structures occur. Thus, these features are not directly extractable from ele... | | 1998-08 |
